I got fed up with the reflection in the mirror, and quite ex tempore booked an appointment at a hair salon for Saturday. I sat there for nearly four hours with bleach and hair dye on my head, reading random beauty mags and powernapping.

The result was worth the wait and all the money spent, though. It's been quite a while since I've felt so pretty and happy with the creature smiling back at me in the mirror. ♥

There's still ways to go before it's what I want it to be, but I'm a lot closer to what I want it to be - the bangs are pretty much perfect right now! I spent the longest time trying to choose between keeping them and growing them out, and eventually decided to just stick with them. I didn't lose too much of the length even though my hair did burn with the bleaching, and I now need to soak it in every possible moisturizing care product I can with every single wash for who knows how long... I also had the lower black part touched up, and I really like the results so far - hey, at least I don't feel like punching the face in my mirror every morning!

Unfortunately I had to skip Saturday's Bella Morte -party due to complete exhaustion from the week (sleep deprivation), but these things happen, and you'd think 15 hours of continuous sleep would provide enough energy to last a while... ;)

Anywho, I've also bought tons of new clothes, but for now I only have a poor picture of Lip Service Quarantine -line Decontamination screen top and Epidemic screen leggings. I bought both from ebay in size L, which ended up being a little more tight than I had hoped, mostly due to the screen mesh being non-stretchy. So no pictures of me in them now, since it isn't as pretty a sight as the model (also blonde) they used for this line! :P
